lol thanks for the tag Yukon I guess since it's my name, I'm entitled to a free drive whenever I'm in the area haha Congrats on the truck, love the wheels on that color. I do have a Gen 1, a Gen 2 will be in my future but I prefer to wait until a couple years into the run when it's...

Couple days late, but since it's my several year old thread that was bumped I'll post up lol Definitely sounds like that ford dealership doesn't know raptors, if you have OEM SVT suspension and they're saying it's aftermarket. It's no surprise though, the dealer that my Raptor was courtesy...

bump....1 more up for grabs

1st off....yes I stalked out your profile to see new threads started since I figured you probably posted up when you got it haha. Pretty cool story, and one long azz treck! Congrats on the truck! Next time I'm out to SD hopefully I can catch a ride in it, although it may not help trying to...

Mine is pretty consistent 2.31 sixty's with 15.0's with the intake/tune and full weight when fully warmed up. I never do a burnout with the Raptor though. I drive around the water box and pull right up. Between the softer offroad compound (factory tires) and the weight of the truck and a sticky...

What PSI were your tires at? I would get some spinning if they were at 45-50 like I normally run them, but down to 40 psi on a well prepped track they hooked fine, and less drag on the overall system than being in 4wd the whole time. Crappy prep/test & tune prep may even need to drop a few lbs...

It is really weird racing the Raptor with a 35" tire vs. my drag truck with a 28" skinny up front. Roll out is totally different. Really throws me off at NMRA because it's a pro tree, whereas my drag truck I normally race with a normal tree and shallow stage it for the best E/T. So shallow...

I've got a GB going on the L forums for $275 + shipping. Once the group deal is up the price will go up just because I won't get as good of deals on components buying enough for 50 kits at once.

On that note, I actually build kits for the Lightning/Harley truck guys that install the Raptor fans into their trucks. Uses plug & play connectors, and controls the fans off a 175* temp sensor switch that goes into the block, or manually triggered on via an in-cab switch. There's 3 modes of...

That's pretty badazz!!!! I can't wait to see some times with a few bolt-on mods. My G1 Raptor I've actually ran quite a bit in the 1/4 mile. I've got a 9 second Harley truck that I normally drag race, but if it's broken, or I'm on travel and near a drag strip, I can't resist making a few...

still have the 1 kit left. had a few folks PM wanting it, then never replying back.

I'm at 50k now so I'll be doing an oil change once the weather clears up and I'll see then. I did the hose around 46k miles. Hopefully it's not leaking I"ll be pissed lol

what was the boost before the boostmax?

Well it is also a truck, so maybe he bought a Raptor because he wanted an offroad capable vehicle that could also do truck stuff, like haul and tow, which they can do too ya know. If you're only towing occasionally, and within the tow ratings of the Raptor, there's really not a need to buy...

There is no down travel lost. I'm not sure on up travel because I haven't jacked it up to the point of lifting the tires off the ground since I normally jack it from the axle, but there's a ton of travel on the bags. Little hard to tell in the pics, but it's not just the bag that expands and...

the axles on that trailer are set way back from that pic with your taco. What did you use to measure the tongue weight? I'd bet it's far above the 500 lbs or whatever you're estimating. Raptors do just fine towing.....when the load is properly leveled, and the hitch and all are setup properly...

I know this is umpteen months late, but I don't get on here often, and for anyone searching down the road they may still find it useful. I am on mid-perch. Before the bags my truck sat pretty much exactly level. After the bags the azz does sit up about 1/2" maybe an inch when the bags are...

I don't get on here often, but here's my 2 cents on replacement, since I did end up swapping my hose out a few weeks after my last post with the pics of it leaking. Do it when you're doing an oil change, and get a deep 14mm allen wrench. After you remove the oil filter, you can stick the...

There's ONE available if anyone wants it. $175 shipped.

I didn't mean for 2017 models, I just meant if anyone is interested for another round of a mini GB since it's 2017 now. Once my buddy gets his 2017 delivered, we can see about getting a gen 2 kit built.

anyone know if the shifter is interchangeable with the gen 1 trucks? Looks similar, and especially if the thing comes as an assembly like that, just the mounting holes and cable interface and console interface needs to be the same. That'd be one stellar upgrade for the gen 1 guys to add. I hate...

Bump....hey anyone interested in a round for 2017?

Installed my firestone kit a few weeks ago. Really impressed with the kit! Everything bolted up great, no issues. Hardest part was taking the factory bump stops off, which once I figured out to pop the rubber out of the cup, was cake lol. Literally that easy of an install! I've got it...

Hey just getting back on here, been busy with my other truck lately and haven't been on FRF. Checked my PMs and didn't have any from you. I assume you got the kit? I hope! lol If not let me know and I can dig up tracking info for you.
